BECOME A PARTNER IN THE FAMILY TO FAMILY PROGRAM!
Full Partnership: $1,750/year
You'll be partnered with a family in Uganda.
Shared Partnership: $875/year
You and another donor will be partnered with the same family in Uganda.
It is our hope that students and their families will be able to stay enrolled in the program until the student finishes schooling (secondary school plus two years to get a certificate in a specific skill). We understand that your circumstances may change however, so we give you an opportunity to renew each year.

This is an opportunity for you to create a long-term and meaningful relationship with a family in Uganda while supporting a child’s education and the family's overall health and well-being. Your partnership makes it possible for one child from your partner Ugandan family to access educational excellence and for the whole family to have greater access to quality health and economic opportunities. Your partnership helps parents to provide a stable and healthy environment where their children can grow and thrive.
Each sponsored student is enrolled in a supportive local private boarding school. Their family attends workshops on parenting, business, health, nutrition, and receives health insurance at Give Us Wings' health clinic, St. John's Kayoro Health Center.
Your partnership will help the family to create a sustainable future!
